     What did that Reddit user expect? Putting sensitive info in a Google sheet is dumb, and sharing the link on Facebook is dumber. These companies exist to mine your data, then sell the metadata to the highest bidder. They're not "search engines" or "social media platforms" but !surveillance agencies that are monetized though advertising.
